i've been studying (reading actually) the proposed cobol standards. and
i've noticed that you seem to be involved in some capacity (observer to
implementor). is there a simple explaination as to why there is so much
interest in making COBOL into .... ? COBOL, like every other invention
of mankind, needs the occasional make-over. but this seems a bit much.
there might be good reason, a valid destination, but i don't see it.
maybe you can explain.
tia.
it's like taking a mack truck and turning it into a dodge 3500 dually.
yes, it's still a truck, still diesel powered, and still carries a load.
but what you end up with is really something completely different.
